The movement of glucose across the cell membrane through facilitated diffusion is a form of passive transport because glucose is transported according to concentration gradient. no cellular energy is spent. intramembrane receptors are used. a transport protein is needed.

How do high-energy electrons from glycolysis and the krebs cycle contribute to the formation of atp from adp in the electron transport chain? a. high-energy electrons interact with pyruvic acid to create a phosphate bond with adp, forming atp. b. high-energy electrons supply the needed energy to synthesize atp from the lower-energy adp in the electron transport chain. c. high-energy electrons supply a negative charge which causes the citric acid to oxidize, forming a phosphate group to bond with adp. d. high-energy electrons increase the temperature of adp so it easily reacts to form atp.

Omar paddles a canoe downstream at a rate of 5 mi/hr. the stream is flowing at a rate of 12 mi/hr. what is the actual velocity of the canoe? a: 5 mi/hr, downstream b: 7 mi/hr, downstream c: 12 mi/hr, downstream d: 17 mi/hr, downstream

Martha is writing a report on the landfill gases near her house. fill in the blanks to complete her report. use this table for calculations: residence time (t) mass (m) methane 8 years 4.3 × 1015 g landfill methane humans produce a huge amount of waste every day. landfills were designed to combat this large amount of waste by accumulating and disposing it. organic waste from landfills undergoes decomposition in the absence of oxygen, producing gases. methane gas is a large percentage of the gases emitted from landfills. if we consider a landfill a reservoir, the flow rate of methane is . methane has a longer residence time than co2, and it is a greenhouse gas that traps heat very effectively. therefore, methane the temperature of the reservoir.
